Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone has completed the assessment after the Hirevue? If so, what did it entail? Were there technicals and how should I study for it/is it necessary to study for?

Read the “MS SA 2020 megahead “ thread. I posted the assessment in there.
Has anyone heard back from IBD after the Hirevue?
I had a phone screen with Morgan Stanley FSG (SF) in April and have heard nothing since. pretty confused
Has anyone heard anything from MS? I and all of my friends (from target school) haven't heard anything since the Hirevue which is weird, especially because one of my friends has a strong connection. Anyone had a first round or anything?
Nothing yet for NYC
I talked to an MD, he said they will start reviewing applications after July 7 - yet haven't got any updates since then.
Anybody else get their offer sheet yet, I want to start a groupme
does that mean you got an offer?
Did you get an offer>
I got an offer
I go to a target as well. Haven't heard back since the hirevue/assessment thing
Heard that they will start sending out interview invites next week, interviews will occur the last 2 weeks of July
Superday invites?
First round interview
Is first round over the phone. Someone on the IBD recruiting team reached out to me for a phone call
Probably. I still haven't heard back.
Has anyone heard back from the online assessment. I still havent
Anyone know anything about Global Capital Markets? I only had the online assessment for IB NY.
I did not have any assessment for GCM.
Ok. Do you know about that timeline?
anyone know the timeline for tech positions?
bump, has anyone heard anything lately? when would they start sending first-round/superday invites?
Same! I submitted my application in March and haven't heard back since
Non-targets probably August. Targets earlier
Has anyone gotten any notification yet? I still haven't heard anything from MS :/
Bump on this. Would also help to know if anyone who has received goes to a target and/or if anyone at a target has not received any information yet.
I'm a target-school applicant too, still now word :'( "Crazylook" commented below that supposedly recruitment won't actively go into effect until mid/late-August
Spoke to a few contacts at MS and the consensus seems to be that the recruitment process won't actively go into effect until mid to late August for all divisions.
Heard the same, mid august
I had my first round phone interview for Firm Strategy & Execution today so recruitment is definitely starting to kick off
IB recruiter told me no later than mid august, so yeah, should hear before then if you get a first round, if you haven't heard by then you are probably out for IB at least
I have that coming up soon. Was the interview technical or mostly behavioral?
At semi target, spoke with a VP who said that they're reviewing resumes this week
Spoke to an ED from my University. Non-Target. He said they will begin the process in mid-August
I reviewed the status of my application for the first time in a while- it currently says "application update"... did it always say that? I swear it used to say "application received"
For me it's always said that since the hirevue
I think you're right... my mistake :/
Someone emailed me asking my availability for a phone screen -- anyone know what this is like/what technical questions are asked?
Can second this, received email today for NY IB. If anybody has done it and can offer any guidance would be much appreciated.
target or non target?
Is mid august same for sophomore programs?
are you guys talking about north america recruitment? how about hong kong
Info on London?
Is London even open yet for IBD?
nope, opens next month
Had a phone round yesterday for the LA office, just got asked 2 valuation questions.
Have u heard back yet?
Did anyone hear back from NY IBD?
Not since the first round
When was your first round
Did they give you a sense as to when the super day would be? I had my phone screen yesterday but my interviewer didn't give any details. Last I heard from recruiting the super day would be mid August, but that seems unlikely at this point.
Has anyone heard back regarding the S&T timeline for MS and its groups (FI, Eq, BRM)? First rounds or superdays?
Semi target here. Had first round on friday morning, still haven't heard back. Does anyone know if they're doing second rounds before a superday?
A friend just did a first round interview and his interviewer told him it was straight to superday, but could definitely be school dependent.
What was the first round like?
Almost all behavoiral. With an analyst. But I have a high GPA so perhaps that's why.
Has anyone heard from Global Capital Markets?
I haven't. Has anyone heard back from GCM?
I've been in touch with a couple people and heard that should kick off in mid-August.
I had a GCM first round interview on August 8th
Anyone heard from Investment Management?
Curious too
Had a first-round phone screen this past week.
Are they still sending first rounds! Whats the status?
Would appreciate any answer to this as well!!
yeah just got the email for first round today
What Bank?
Hi, has anyone done first round phone interview with Global Capital Markets yet? Will it mostly be behavioral or will there be technical questions (like IB)? Or should I know things more general about the market?
Did you get an interview? Are you at a target or non target?
Target, completed interview yesterday
Hi, did anyone hear back for first round interviews with MS for either equities, FI, or BRM?
Anyone from Baruch College hear back? Or are we all the way on the bottom of the list.
Hi guys, what's the status on 1st round IBD? I had my phone for FSE a week ago but haven't heard since.
I have a phone screen scheduled this week for Equities S&T. I'm at a target
When did you hear back for a first-round interview, when were you invited?
I was emailed today
Has anyone gotten a superday yet for NYC IBD?
Just received first round for MS Fixed Income Division. 3.7 GPA Target School (I think, but honestly who knows anymore), did some networking but not much.
Lol what school?
Also got the email for FI. Kinda interesting because I thought I bombed the Hirevue for FI. But someone CC'd my resume for FI
Have you heard back from Fixed Income phone interview?
Has anybody heard after hirevue? HK/BJ
Haven't heard anyone received that. Can I know when u submitted yours?
July 19th
.
Has anyone heard back from the real estate/ FSE superday yet?

Deleted

Still waiting too
When did you interview? Sorry have no PMs left.

Deleted
Does anyone know the timeline for IBD superdays? I had my hirevue 3/4 weeks ago and still haven't heard back (no rejection/no superday)
One the same boat and have no clue
is the hirevue same as their 1st round?
Anyone heard back after the 8/13 superday?
Did anyone get invited to a superday end of August / early September?
Anyone hear back for first rounds for any of the s&t groups for those who are nontarget or any potential superdays?
I heard back from my first-round within a few days and have a superday next week for BRM.
Anyone hear back from first rounds?
If you were referred would you still get a phone screen?
Wondering the same. Got a referral but haven’t gotten that yet
Yes
Does anyone know if they're doing more than one round of superdays for real estate?
think it depends bc they only take 4 SA's but probably, since there were only like 4-5 people at the last superday
Good to know, thank you!
I received an invite for a first round! I'm assuming there will still be a few super days?
was it for investment banking?
no, s&t
Anyone heard from Calgary office for IBD after Hirevue and assessment ?
Anyone heard from Calgary office for IBD after Hirevue and assessment
I did my super earlier this week. You hear back?
Did anyone get asked to do LBO model for IBD?
Can confirm one superday will happen on 29th
Yes
Is this for NY IBD?
^^
I didn’t apply for IBD but it’s NY
how long did it take from 1st round to superday? thanks
^^ bump. I'm curious how long they usually take to get back (specifically for S&T?)
Mine was 7 days in total. But I assumed it would take longer because my interview was delayed for 7 days bc the interviewer out for vacation
What kinds of questions should you expect for GCM? I don't know what type of technical question to prepare for - will it be mostly just about the market? or also valuation/banking stuff
For First Round or Superday? Have you heard back from the GCM First Round?
^ I had First Round GCM interview a little over a week ago and have not heard back yet
has anyone heard back from the NY IBD SA superday from last week?
Haven't heard anything yet. wbu?
Have you heard back? How long did It take
Anyone get any updates from Singapore?
Had a first-round phone call last week, SD invites go out tomorrow or early next week
If you haven’t heard back since HireVue, safe to say it’s a ding, right? Someone rip off the bandage. Lol.
Honestly got contacted for first rounds for WM and MSIM last week (interviews took place this week) so maybe not? depending on the divisio
nah I got a first round phone call notification just yesterday
just got my super day invite for summer analyst technology business/data analyst. did not have a hirevue at all, went straight to superday lol (idk how but honestly i'll take it im a super non-target potato but with decent experience and 4.0 gpa)
Anyone heard back from Thursday/Friday superdays from last week? For ibd. Tryna help a friend out lol.
Anyone heard from IBD NY superday on the 27th?
How long did it take you to receive a superday invite after your first round phone interview?
